Gloucester-Hartpury finished top of the table after the regular season with 16 wins from 18 games

Gloucester-Hartpury reached their first Premier 15s final, holding off a resurgent Bristol at Kingsholm.

Bristol responded with two Lark Davies tries after the break and Elinor Snowsill's unsuccessful second conversion left them trailing 14-12.

Eventually, Gloucester-Hartpury took control once more as Rachel Lund scored with 12 minutes remaining.

Sunday's semi-final between Exeter and Saracens at Sandy Park is a repeat of the 2022 final, which Sarries won to claim a third Premier 15s title.
